Pregnant after IF
Cautious intro. BFP after 1st IVF cycle.
Hi Ladies,
Can I join? I'm so happy to be here! I just went through my first ever IVF cycle and I had my first beta today which came back at 685 (14dp3dt or 17dpo). I had been testing at home all week so I had a feeling we'd get good news today, but of course I still had major anxiety until I got the phone call with the beta. Seeing positive results after all of these months of negatives just blew my mind! I just can't believe it! I am currently still on prometrium, progesterone injections, lovenox, and prednisone to keep my immune system under control (please stay calm!). I go back on Tues for beta #2. Praying the number doubles like it should so I can stay on this board with you ladies!
